    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    Hmm, guess I wasn't getting the facts straight in my head. First, in Linux I found both NICs work, so it turns out that it wasnt the PCI lock after all. I flashed back to the 3/10, and to my dismay sound still didn't work. I ended up reseating the sound module, which is a real pain since it...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I have noticed the same thing with the latest bios, also I seem to have lost sound. I'm assuming you are overclocked... i'm guessing they broke the PCI lock with this bios, since I think sound, sata 3&4, and the nvidia NIC are all clocked from the PCI bus. The marvel connects thru the pci-e...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    Juandoh: Corsair Value Select works great, i'v been using it on this board since February. You just need to change the Max Async Latency to 7ns if overclocking, 6 if running stock, and the memory works fine. Without setting that i was getting the exact same issues. It ran totally stable even...

    Prob with DFI OCing

    When adjusting ram voltage just use the + and - keys, don't hit enter and use the menu. There's a bug in the interface of the 1/25 bios that makes it always go back to 2.6 when you use the menu. I believe it is fixed in the 3/10 bios, you can get it at www.dfi.com.tw.

    Corsair Value Select

    My 3200+ seems to really hit a wall around 2.4. It'l do 2.4 at 1.45V, but cannot do 2.5 even at 2.55V. Zebo who seems to be pretty informed about these things told me in another thread that it is pretty common for winchesters to just hit a wall like that, and no sane amount of voltage can get...

    wich one is better???

    As I understand a PFC regulates the voltage coming out of the wall, for example if you turn on your A/C and all the lights dim, a power supply without a PFC would pass that disturbance along to the electronics on your computer. A PFC will flatten out that disturbance, so your computer's...

    Corsair Value Select

    I'd put money on it that its your processor that is limiting you, not the ram.

    wich one is better???

    This looks like coolermaster's page for it... which says it has 25A on the +5V and 2 on the +5Vsb rails, so it is the same as the ALCY except for the APFC. Newegg's specs are probably just a typo. I have the Real Power 450 and love it. I'm running an oc'd winchester, dvd burner, 1 hd, a...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    To set memory voltage just put the cursor over the correct field and use the + and - keys to adjust it. Theres an interface bug with the menu if you hit enter, but + and - work perfectly with the 1/25 bios.

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I'v posted this before, but it looks like its been lost in the first couple pages. For anyone experiencing memory problems try setting "Max Async Latency" to 6 nanoseconds if running defaults, 7 if overclocking. This fixed all problems I had with my corsair value select, and may help for...

    Quick and dirty A64 clocking guide **UPDATE** X2 OC information!

    I seem to be hitting a wall above about 240 fsb. First, the system specs: Winchester 3200+ DFI Lanparty UT ultra-d Cooler Master 450 watt PS (24-pin, dual 12v) 2X512 Corsair value Zalman 7000alcu w/ as5 IDE hard drive. No issues with locks on that, right? I can get the FSB up...

    DFI Ultra-D + TCCD mem: does it work now?

    Set Max Async Latency 10 7ns in bios. It will work better than.

    DFI NF4 Ultra work with Corsair Value Select?

    Glad I could help. My value select will run at 225mhz with 2.8V. I'm not sure if its stable since I didn't test it much, but thats really good for value ram. I'm running right now with mem at 216mhz 2.6v, 1:9(180) ratio with a 240 bus. I'm pretty sure the memory is stable, since I was able...

    "Official" DFI nF4 Ultra-D / SLI-DR Thread

    I'm running right now with the ram at 216mhz, 2.6V (240 fsb 9:10 ratio). I ran it through 1 pass of memtest, then bootstrapped gentoo which is very sensative to memory errors (it was failing before when memtest woulden't find any errors til the 10th or so pass). So yea, my ram is looking good...
